ONE thing I don’t do anymore is come up with New Year resolutions. (This Instagram post explains why.) But I am a dreamer and a bit of a planner, so when my lovely blogging friend Lucy over at Mrs H’s Favourite Things, tagged me in an ’18 For 2018′ post, I knew I’d be foolish not to take part. 18 For 2018 is an idea that’s come from Gretchen Rubin,
With just a few days to go until the big day, like many of us, I am beginning to feel a slight wave of inner panic building inside as I realise just how much I still have left to do on the final countdown. Luckily for me, the bulk of my Christmas gift shopping has thankfully already been done, but if you’re currently sat at home reading this and finding
A few weeks ago we had the most festive overnight stay at Wynyard Hall, a luxury hotel in the North East. It’s a place which we have totally fallen in love with as a family and only just discovered, but much to our utter delight, only a few weeks after our first stay, we were very kindly invited back to experience a special Christmas break.

I’ve fallen in love with a hotel in the North East. I didn’t expect to write that line, I tell you! But it’s true. Last week, the four of us, travelled to the North East for an overnight stay at the absolutely beautiful Wynyard Hall in the Tees Valley and we all loved it so much, we didn’t want to leave.

As a self employed woman, doing what I do and juggling motherhood along the way, it can be pretty tricky to meet people who ‘get’ my life. Plus my days can often get a little lonely.
